I simply haven't liked anything she has done 'professionally' since she won DALS. I think her so-called "live" performances of Blonde, which were lip-synced, were terrible . I didn't like any of the tracks on the new album so I haven't even bought that.

this is not the first time she has let her fans down big time and it's starting to feel just a bit disrespectful. Sadly, I think I'm about ready to draw a line in the sand because in my eyes she seems to have lost everything that made her special.
I was just about to type the exact same thing ..

I guess that makes three of us; you, FRA and me , the "Désenchantés"

Maybe I'll change my mind when she'll be back to being a brunette, stop engaging in destructive relationships and leave the commercial EDM genre behind , but it doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon

I could write a novel on this theory after working with women for 25 years.

The boyfriend becomes 100% of their life and nothing else matters.

Lucky for all of us this only applies to maybe 10% of the single women out there.

I was just talking last week to my GM about an ex employee that is just like this

This woman loses jobs yearly or every eighteen months because she is calling off from work so much. She is so jealous and afraid that other women can't resist the unemployed or underemployed stud she is dating that she just has to be with him all the time.

Very pretty and hard working but again the losers and or players she dates and financially supports, are far more important than anything else in her life. She just lost her head trainer position at a major retailer this past August.

I'm just imagining how awkward it would be when Grégoire and his new dance partner would win this round of DALS and she also has to go on tour.

He can hardly dance with Alizée and her at same time

Don't count your chickens until they hatch. He may have won with Alizée but who says this years partner is going to take him all the way to the finals again ?

Like 2013 the two best were Braham and Alizée, Braham was clearly the better dancer but Alizée won the audience over. She pulled it together when she needed to and performed at her best. If he hadn't been Madonna's plaything at the time he probably could have won. On that final show Braham was robbed of the win by the audience.

Thankfully, I only bought OLYMPIA+CD bundle.

Planned to find a nice Paris tour a bit later, well now that's off.

And advice of getting the money back? Not sure I understood their e-mail correctly. I need the send the tickets back before the end of September, right?

Until I discovered Alizee, I would think spending 3 or 4 thousand dollars to fly from San Antonio, Texas to Paris merely to attend a concert (one that I suspected wouldn’t be that great) would be insane. However, to see Alizee live, I was anxious to do it. The only reason I didn’t lay the money down was that I couldn’t arrange the date. So I dodged the bullet. That was a very close bullet.

Non Stop People Magazine claims the tour was cancelled because of the disastrous sale of the Blond album—only 4,254 albums sold. They also fault the high price of the concert tickets. Between 36 to 41 euros, the same price as tickets for a Beyonce concert. They are predicting this to be the end of Alizee’s career. It makes me sick. “As Scruffydog wrote, “No one can take the place of Alizee.”

The concert in 2003/2004 had similar prices (I think)
